Activision increasing server capacity to compensate.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 launched today, and according to Activision, millions of people are already playing online. Unfortunately, many of them are trying to sign up for Call of Duty Elite simultaneously, causing some users to have trouble subscribing.

In a statement released this morning, Activision said that it's aware of the situation and are already working on a fix.

"Registration requests for our new live service Call of Duty Elite are exceeding even our most optimistic expectations, which is creating a bottleneck and some players have not been able to register," the company said. "We have already registered hundreds of thousands of players and we are working around the clock to increase our capacity as quickly as possible."
